The accident occurred at 11:07 o’clock, near Escalle station, the train leaving San Rafael at 10:50 causing it Miss Keefe was crossing the tracks near Goeppert's villa. The up-coun- try electric train had just passed and a steam special picnic train was fol- | lowing. A train en route to Sausali- to was due at the same time. It is presumed ‘that Miss Keefe heard the steam train approaching, but could not hear the oncoming electric train. A curve in the road would also ob- struct her view. She stepped off one track and on to the other, but as the electric train came the car struck Miss Keefe in the back of the head. Her body was hurled upward and her head struck a large brass alarm bell on the motor car, breaking it off. Motorman Driscoll saw the girl and knew the lision was inevitable. Just as his car struck Miss Keefe he threw on the brakes and fainted. The train stopped after eight of the ten cars yassed over the girl's body. { The body was found about forty feet from the place where the young woman was when the accident oc- curred. She was dead. Willing hands conveyed her to Goeppert's villa and Coroner Sawyer was notified. | Miss Keefe was the daughter of Mr. | {and Mrs. Daniel Keefe of 1628 Union | | street, San Francisco. The Keefes | were spending the summer at Goep-- 'pert’s villa. Miss Keefe was a tele- phone operator at the Palace Hotel She came across the bay last evening to remain over Decoration day with her family. This morning after breakfast she started to the baths. | Her brothers, George and John, had preceded her and were swimming when the accident occurred. | —_———— INVALIDS HEAR LONG | DISTANCE ADDRESS By Use of Telephone in Philadelphia Hospital Patients Listen to Ser- | mon Given a Mile Away. i PHILADELPHIA, May 30.—Patients in their cots at the Samaritan Hospital listened by telephone to a sermon in | the Grace Baptist Temple, more than a mile away, yesterday. | It was the first practical application of the telephone for this purpose.

NEW SCIENTIFIC PROCESS. A Preparatioh Discovered That Will De- stroy the Dandruff Germ. For some time it has been known that dandruff is caused by a germ that digs up the scalp into little white flakes, and by sapping the vitality of the hair at the root, causes falling hair, and, of course, finally baldness. For years there have been all kinds of hair stimulants and scalp tanics on the market, but there has been no permanent cure for dandruff un- til the discovery of a preparation called Newbro’s Herpicide, which destroys the dandruff germ. Destroy the cause, the effect will cease to exist. Kill the dan- druff germ and you'll have no dandruff, no {tching scalp, no falling hair. Sold by leading druggists.
